In Cappadocia, hot air balloons soaring over the fairy chimneys flew adorned with Turkish flags and posters of Atatürk in celebration of the October 29 Republic Day.
These balloons provided tourists the opportunity to view the region's natural beauty from the sky, flying with Turkish flags and Atatürk posters hanging from their baskets.
Balloons prepared for flight in the town of Göreme, Nevşehir, took off in succession at sunrise.
Dozens of hot air balloons floated over valleys covered with fairy chimneys and natural rock formations for about an hour.
